Simply Amazing!! - Helen was simply amazing! We booked a wine tour with Helen based on all the wonderful TripAdvisor reviews and we are so happy we did! She arranged a full... read more day of wine tasting, lunch, a brief tour of Wellington and even a stop at Rivendell for some views of the LOTR filing locations.

She not only had a perfect itinerary, but she also had waters, mints, cheese and crackers available to us - she seriously thought of everything! The wines were delicious and the stop for lunch (included) had the best lamb shank I’ve ever tasted!

My husband and I just got back to our cruise ship and can’t stop talking about how fantastic this tour and Helen’s hospitality was. This was defiitely the best wine tour we’ve taken, and we’ve taken many!

Thank you Helen, for such a amazing day!

  Great day in Wellington with Helen!! - Our group of 9 arriving on the Celebrity Solstice in November 2017 had a fantastic tour of Wellington with Helen in a very comfortable van. We saw the highlights... read more of the city and had a great lunch at the newly renovated art deco Roxy Theatre. We also had a tour of the WETA studios. Helen had a great knowledge of her city and a wonderful and engaging personality. We had a great day.

  Absolutely great tour which can give you a lot of informations of this small city. Very comfortable transport and easy to go. Helen is amazing tour guide. She can explain... read more a lot of interesting details about the city and things around. Absolutely not boring and I can not compare with any professional tour I have ever made. If you searching pearls around the city this tour will not disappoint you.

  Martinborough Wine Tour - Party of 5 adults looking around the great vineyards of New Zealand...what could be better? Our day trip was made better by having Helen from Silver Cloud be a... read more tour guide. She was fantastic. Very knowledgeable about the region & history. Her little stories kept us all enthralled. She was able to re-adjust our tour when time got tight due to our over stays in the wineries. (Sorry Helen). We can highly recommend Silver Cloud Luxury Tours....Best tour we've ever been on.

  Wine tour - Along with another couple we spent a full day touring Martinborough while on a cruise day stop.
Helen picked us up at the port in a very comfortable van. We... read more went to Rivendell Film set and then through on a beautiful drive to the wine area. We visited 4 wineries plus another one for lunch. All of the wineries were very good and lunch was very good.
Helen is a great driver, knows her wine and is very cautious to make sure you get back to the port on time.
I highly recommend this tour and hope to tour with Silver cloud again.
Helen thanks for a great day, add your website above!

  The Very Best! - We wanted an intimate private tour that covered a lot of ground during our one precious day in Wellington. Helen of Silver Cloud Tours delivered that and then some! We... read more rode the cable car, saw government buildings, St. Pauls Church, had a delicious lunch at Roxy Theater, took at tour of Weta Studios and finished off with a wonderful visit to Te Papa which Helen personally narrated. We told Helen about our interests (LOTR, Maori culture) and she thoughtfully incorporated that into our itinerary. I have a bad knee and Helen was always there to help me into the van which is super comfortable with captains seats. Helen is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about her home town of Wellington and kept us entertained and comfortable the whole time. After the tour was over Helen followed up that night with emails about things we might be interested in. We have been on quite a few private tours and Silver Cloud ranked up there with the best ever. Honestly we felt like Helen was a good friend rather than a tour guide. Prices are very reasonable for what you get too. Don't hesitate, book with Silver Cloud Luxury Tours!

  I went to NZ North Island for a tour and had a couple of days free to explore the region. I came across this amazing tour which I could do... read more as a solo person. Helen oozed enthusiasm with her knowledge of Wellington / Martinborough Region. I recommend this tour to anyone visiting the region. Helen made my tour of exactly what I requested and I felt completely relaxed in her company. Thank you so much Helen and will promote you to anyone I know going to Wellington.

  Tour in Wellington, NZ - Absolutely a great tour company! There were 8 of us travelling together in New Zealand and Australia, so Helen customized an all day tour for us in Wellington, NZ.... read more (and picked us up from the cruise port). Despite the rain all day, Helen made it a wonderful tour that was fun and very informative. We all had a lovely day. I would highly recommend this tour company as you won't be disappointed!!!!
Thanks, Helen, for a fabulous day that we won't forget! Janice

  Martinborough in one day - We had one day in Wellington on a cruise ship and wanted to maximize our day visiting wineries in Martinborough. We were lucky enough to find Helen with Silver Cloud... read more and it was a perfect day!!! She's incredibly informative about the wine industry in general having grown up around it and her passion and knowledge truly made the day a perfect 10. She helped us pick the best wineries to explore and peppered the day with great stories about the history of the area and personal anecdotes that really made it more special. We saw a larger group from our ship coming in to one of the stops and they didn't get a quarter of the special attention and experience that we did. Due to bad weather our port visit was delayed by a day and on very short notice Helen made changes to accommodate our group which really blew us away. If you're considering a tour here (wine related or otherwise) there is no better hostess!
